Mary Lee

Whenever I look out the window, I see her leave

Whenever I sleep on the pillow, I hear her breathe

Whenever I look back, I can't believe, what a stupid, drunk boy I was to let Mary leave

Trade blows with the foes, too young and I grow

This skin just doesn't fit me

Too many souls have lost their hold on reality wearing these

So I took a pinch of my Ma, pinch of my Pa and measured my own body and now I got a suit of class, made to last, off a man off New Bond street

La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la

We're thick as thieves, hearts on sleeves, searching for memories

Blowing off steam, just seventeen, forgetting where we've been

So I took a tip from my Ma, tip from my Pa, and walked around my dreams

Found me in a car, driving far away from the places that I've seen

Whenever I look out the window, I see her leave

Whenever I sleep on the pillow, I hear her breathe

Whenever I look back, I can't believe, what a stupid, drunk boy I was to let Mary leave
